The PeopleTools New User Interface (NUI) and Branding has been available for a while and it should not be news to anyone that the system level header appears as shown below.
As we can see, the Branding header provides icons such as Home, Search, Notifications, Actions Menu and Navigator. This is a system wide setting controlled by the application branding configuration/setup. That means these icons will appear on any page/component we navigate to. For example:
What if we want to disable some or all of these icons at a component level?
There is a configuration in the Component - Fluid Properties - Header Toolbar Actions which allows us to disable some or all of these icons.
What if we want to programmatically/conditionally control the visibility of these header icons?
Someone asked me this question in one of posts here. I found that this is very much possible using the delivered (8.55+) PT_PAGE_UTILS API (App Package).
We can simply use the Banner App Class available in the PT_PAGE_UTILS App Package to control the visibility of the header icons in PeopleCode at the page/component level.
PeopleBooks Reference:
Fluid Page Utilities Classes
Banner Class
For example:
Results:
We can see that the 'Home' icon is disabled using PeopleCode on this particular page.
Similarly we can use the following Banner class methods to disable other Branding header icons:
SetVisibilityActionList
SetVisibilityAddto
SetVisibilityHelp
SetVisibilityMyPreferences
SetVisibilityNavbar
SetVisibilityNotifications
SetVisibilitySearch
SetVisibilitySignout
Further, some of these options (Search) are not available via Component - Fluid Properties.
